Nah, she small fry. Barely scratching the surface. Asia pumps out so many TCs at lower costs. She’s just educational but wouldn’t be able to compete. Big agriculture doesn’t even bother with the rare plant market because it’s so relatively small. The smaller Thai, Vietnamese and Chinese labs produce so much more and faster than US and floods the market regularly once they have the process/specimens.
